Watertown Food Pantry Provides Essentials to Hundreds Weekly, Needs Temporary Location
WATERTOWN – For over 30 years, the Watertown Food Pantry has provided essential food and hygiene products to the community, serving many as 140 families every week. Volunteers even kept the operation going through the pandemic.
The church that the Food Pantry has called home for over three decades will soon start a renovation project that will temporarily displace this critical resource. Food Pantry organizers are asking the community to suggest any ideas for a new location by emailing [email protected].
